Planning on getting my ticket for this one and heading to the Whitten Oval.

At least we are still in with a shot at a premiership at VFL level.

Im hearing the tent might be traded to Geelong for a Webber and a pack of BBQ shapes.
I reckon G might play hard ball and let it walk to pickles auctions.

No, Freijah was though and apparently he can play

So based on what Smads said and some information from the training session today it looks like from Friday nights team, Freijah, Harmes and McNeil can be added to the side but this is balanced out by the likes Sanders, Coffield and JJ who won't be available as I understand it.

Not many fans there today, maybe 8, and I believe Thursdays session will be a lockout due to the AFLW game at the ground on Thursday night

Players who trained consisted of Busslinger, Clarke, Baker, Duryea*, Croft, Harmes, Khamis, Poulter, Bedendo, Freijah, Scott, McNeil, A.Jones, Cleary, Garcia, Johannisen, Smith, Rypstra, Keath and Gardner. Rypstra still very much in a modified program.

The Alex Johnson, Edge and Pratt were on the track and quite a few from the sports science guys.

Makes sense as Sanders has played too many AFL games, Coffield and JJ not enough VFL games. Freijah's 13th AFL game was the final and shouldn't count so just makes it with exactly 12 AFL/6 VFL games.

Interesting Duryea was out there.

Was there any particular reason?

It really surprised me. I initially thought someone might have borrowed his his jumper but it was him.
